• 9 bottles of beer on the wall...

    Hey Nancy!

    a gout attack had me not able to sit at the computer for long
    periods of time

    Ouch. I understand those to be very painful.

    Sounds like you may be in a hotbed of entrepreneurship

    Most of which are either expat Brits or are native Canadians with British heritage. The connection to single malt Scotch is very strong in this part of the world.

    So we will just look forward to the coming toast, instead

    Single digit now. :-)

    I'll at least do my toast

    This one, as well as all xxxx-01-01 ones past and future, is in your honour. It would have never happened without you.

    Life is good,
    Maurice

    ... Future cybertoasts of note:
    2018-01-01 is 9 days from now and falls on a Monday.
    2024-11-05 is 2509 days from now and falls on a Tuesday.

    Are, indeed... :) Fortunately I'm almost over it now... so the pain is
    mostly subsiding now... :)

    That would make sense... :)

    Well, it was our both bemoaning the unlikelihood of a physical meeting
    to lift a wee dram or two together that led to the institution of the
    virtual cybertoasting... ;)
